Chatty buggy Rug/SMT

[brunold]

Adrian,

Sadly, on one of the servers it doesn't appear to work either. Been
sitting there for half an hour waiting for the server to return to the
prompt.

if it does not come back sometimes is a result of a corrupt or over sized sqlite database of the rug client. The next time you see that, check the size "Ls -la /var/lib/zmd/zmd.db". The size depends on the services you have added. I would say not bigger then 20 or 30MB. The database can be cleaned out by running "rug restart --clean" or if it never comes back from such a command, it can be deleted. Simply shutdown or kill the rug client and delete that file. Once you start the client the next time it will be recreated from scratch and hopefully full functional. The only thing you loose when deleteing it is the bundle and package locks if you used them.
